“Endless Winter” chapter five! In this turning point issue, the Justice League is scattered across the snow-covered globe, trying to stave off the frozen doom, leaving Green Lantern John Stewart to stand alone. At the Hall of Justice, he begins to piece together clues that could help turn the icy tide that threatens to overwhelm them all. But then an unexpected visitor arrives on cue: the Frost King himself! In the past, however, Queen Hippolyta, Swamp Thing, and Viking Prince witness a terrible decision made by Black Adam-one that will haunt them forever.
Justice League #58 is a revitalizing mid-point to the Endless Winter event. This huge battle was needed, as there was the potential for the plot to seize in the cold. Green Lantern was the perfect choice as the main character, as it gives him when he doesnt have his own series for it to be featured in. His powers and personality are more than enough to boost the energy of the crossover, and the art is spectacular as he does so. Read Full Review
This special event is playing out with obvious care and attention to detail making for a fun alternative for readers searching for a lighter, but challenging adventure for the main heroes of the DCU. Read Full Review
It's far from high art, but it is a damn adsorbing read for the holiday break and I'm glad to be along for the ride. Read Full Review
Justice League #58 was a quite enjoyable chapter in the Endless Winter story, but I hope that when #59 comes out in March, that the title gains some more stability than it has had over the last year. Hopefully, Brian Michael Bendis will be able to provide that stability in his run. Read Full Review
Justice League #58 shows readers a different side Green Lantern John Stewart, and "Endless Winter" is all the better for it. This crossover is far stronger than it has any right to be, and shouldn't be missed! Read Full Review
Xermanico delivers some fantastic visuals throughout the issue. There are some great action moments for John Stewart that showcase his power and the Frost King confrontation was well done. Read Full Review
Honestly, this whole crossover feels like a cash-grab filler before "Future State". Read Full Review
While I was hoping for some Fire Trolls to make their appearance in this issue, we focus mostly on John Stewart and him wondering if he'll ever have a family, while also busting up some ice monsters. Yeah, not much is different here than previous chapters and it's wearing a bit thin, but like usual the flashbacks are the star of this and thankfully the art was great throughout. Read Full Review
When I find myself constantly going "but why?" and searching for plot all the way in Week 3 of an event it's not a good sign. Yes, there are some genuinely nice moments in this week's lot of books, but unfortunately I'm still not sold. Read Full Review
fucking global warming man
This is just kinda boring? I don’t know. Hope he gets his popsicle kids (popsikids?) back.
So much for things happening that matter. I guess the point of this issue is to give us some perspective on John Stewart, but nothing here is revolutionary in that regard. I guess it's nice to see heroes being heroes, but it could be done much better. The Justice League 1,000,000 BC pitch that frontloads each issue is probably the part that's most interesting.
A waste of time.
